New heavy cargo warehouse gets its own railway connection

01.12.2020

Schwerguthalle Eisenbahnlinie – C – Nordfrost

WILHELMSHAVEN. In September, the new, 8,000 square metre heavy cargo warehouse was inaugurated by Nordfrost in Wilhelmshaven. The festivities were accompanied by the start of work on laying a track for Nordfrost’s own railway connection. The track will run right through the heavy cargo warehouse, so that arriving components can be transported directly into the warehouse by rail. Roof cranes will then unload and handle the goods. The three bays are currently equipped with cranes with a capacity of up to 120 tonnes.
